Love the simple black bow-tie.

very reserved and laconic ...
contradictory and goal-oriented…
ephemeral and cinematic ...
She is…

The Saudi Princess

Meet Saudi Arabia's Princess Ameera Al-Taweel.  She breathes fresh air to the image of Saudi Arabia.  I wish I was able to find more pictures of her.  I had the experience of living in Saudi for about 10 years and as I usually tell my students, "It was the best and the worst experience of my life".  Princess Ameera is an advocate for women's rights which makes her even more admirable!

Manish Madness at Paris Fashion Week Spring 2013

  

 

 

  

 LOVE LOVE LOVE Above & Below

Many were disappointed that Manish did a "Retrospective" collection for Lakme Fashion Week earlier this year.  Now we know why, he was far to busy creating these masterpieces.  Sad, though that the nation where it all started was not worthy to showcase this collection. Either way, I am overjoyed to bring these to you.  Chanel, DVF and even Marchesa have all been channeling India for their Spring'13 collections.  But when it comes to India, no one can do it better than obviously a native.  The neon colors, the see-through chiffon churidars-LOVE! I have been an ardent fan of the touch-me-if-you-can churidar since I saw Katrina Kaif wear them in a Bollywood song.  The polka-dot dresses and the animal sweaters are absolutely delightful.  Which is your favorite look?
